Wednesday night wrap up

We've moved our Wednesday night middle school meeting out to Harvest Fields for the summer. Last week we celebrated the end of another school year with a fabulous 6-hole goofy golf course, using a different type of ball for each hole. 1 solitary 8th grade guy showed up. We were glad to have him--he's a great guy--but we were missing about ten or so others.

Tonight we started a series of teachings in some of the Psalms. We got poured on! We fled the fire-ring and sought shelter in the barn, which was pretty fun. Not one person complained about being soaked. I taught on Psalm 1, noting that we have the choice to bear fruit, and that choice is tied to where our roots go.

Zero 8th grade guys tonight--not good. There are still many 8th grade ladies around, but the guys are all on vacation or at baseball games or camps. I miss those guys.

This is the year my son (and his friends) move into XStream. That's going to be fun. Kim and I have been praying about my role changing at Calvary. Levi was upset, saying that I had to promise to be his youth pastor. Now that's the kind of thing that a dad/youth pastor wants to hear...
